Intervals @ Leary

Sunny, calm, temps in the upper 30s--a smidge chilly but otherwise ideal conditions. I did the club workout this morning for the second week in a row. I actually hit my goal paces throughout, but obviously had pretty conservative targets. (400,400,200,... jog recovery).

2000m (7:29 / 90s )

1200m (4:24 / 88s )

800m   (2:46 / 83s )

800m   (2:48 / 84s )

Ladders @ Leary

 Did the club workout this morning at Leary. Sunny, temps in the 50s, with a light breeze. Ladders, 1,2,3,4,5,4,3,2,1 minute intervals, with 1 minute jog recovery. My quarter time was hovering around ~92s, so probably about 4 miles hard, 9 miles total. 

Throat's a bit scratchy--hopefully just allergies.

6 x Pump Station Hill

 Lovely spring morning. The grass is starting to flush with green, and the birds are singing. Almost time to put the running tights away!

5 x Pump Station Hill

 5 x Pump Station Hill

68, 69, 70, 69, 69. 

Temps around 30. A beautiful late winter morning with hints of spring in the air. No real physical complaints at the moment--just haven't been doing much quality, and I sure felt it today.

6x600 at Leary

Cool morning, started just before dawn. That first aerobic workout in chilly weather always gets me: teeth aching, lungs busting, everything working a little harder. Didn't help that I had been off the track for a while. 

2:06, 2:13, 2:09, 2:09, 2:09, 2:05. 

 

I forget to write up times from the recent local 3 mile road race: did an 18:30, good for 19th place or so. I was somewhere in the middle of a GI bug that had been turning me inside out for the last few days, but I rallied a bit and felt better during the race.
